“A Christmas Carol: a classic that warms the heart, even as it makes you weep . . . You close the book feeling there is hope for a better future – and there is not much that is more comforting than that.” Lisa O’Kelly, The Guardian Books Blog

“Dickens: The Man Who Invented Christmas.” Sunday Telegraph

“We all know the story. Ebenezer Scrooge is an old miser who hates Christmas. He's visited by the ghost of his late business partner Jacob Marley, who warns Scrooge that he will be haunted by three spirits representing three pivotal points in his life.” Dan

‘This year, try reading instead of watching “A Christmas Carol,” and pay attention to its unsettling elements: the hovering phantom-like narrator, Scrooge’s recurrent facetiousness, the religious peek-a-boo, its apolitical, even reactionary views on social change. There’s more to this Dickens classic than just a progress from “Bah, humbug!” to “God bless us, every one!”’ Michael Dirda, The Washington Post

A CHRISTMAS CAROL is the classic Christmas book featuring the iconic figure of Ebenezer Scrooge. It has been made into film, theatre, and television adaptations and captivated generations of readers.

Its original title was A CHRISTMAS CAROL. IN PROSE. BEING A GHOST STORY OF CHRISTMAS.
